Byron Nelson Chipping

[@pb12661]

The coach of a player who holed one of the all time greatest chip shots. Tom Watson, 1982 U.S. Open.

[@bigbensarrowheadchannel2739]

A gentleman, fierce competitor, and a Texas legend. We miss you Byron.

[@fcholman]

That lesson was worth the $100. He should have paid up. Thank you for posting this vid.

[@prasannakumardas1081]

What a humble personality! Great!

[@gerrymcintosh4477]

Tough times Mr. Nelson. 💝🥰🙏

[@Guitarpick1770]

This footage is priceless. That cattle rancher from Texas could sure play the game.

[@josephquaranto2432]

D.A. Weibring invited him to a charity outing at Qincy,Illinois country club. He was in his 80's but could still play and charm an audience. He also had a champions sharp edge and showed it to the He and D.A's opponents Billy Ray Brown and Dan Pohl. Poll was short and stocky and hit his tee shots consistently 30 yards past everyone.

Pleasure to watch: Thank You!

[@feige9361]

I chipped in for a birdie after learning the throwing a coin motion. Thank you.

Something’s don’t change “let the club go though” and “woman can’t judge distance well as men” PRICELESS

[@rodneydowd4739]

What an absolute legend of a man

[@captgiddyup88]

The most gracious gentleman I have ever had the honor to meet. I see 1 Thumbs Down above. 1 misfit out of 84 is not bad. 1 idiot out of 84 is amazing.

[@I8l]

[@williamknutson7468]

They should make a movie...

[@poocrayon4588]

Was a great time. Too bad that it wasn't filmed, would have been great to see in color as it happened.

[@robertbelyea5767]

Yep. I wish I could go back and watch them in their primes. I guess reading the books will have to fo

[@A-FrameWedge]

Many people mostly the British, criticized U.S. players for not playing in the British Open. In this video Byron talks about playing in the 37’ Open, wining 4th place and won $187. 4th place in the ‘37 US Open was $600, U S Tour payed much better than the European Tour.

[@JaydenLawson]

That cheapskate needed to pay up! Byron Nelson - what a legend. Thanks for uploading. Would love to see the other 10 minutes - even if it is boring. This is important historical and informative footage.

[@johnclark3697]

[@highgatehandyman6479]

[@toumistra]

Hey man, thanks for posting this. This texas gentlemen was a jem.

[@woodledog]

Best ending ever, lol

[@TheMotownPhilly]

That's how winners do it. Playing around then the stakes get raised and boom your out a Hundo. Well done old sir.

[@blakenorman4822]

i did a tiny little body move back and through and tried cutting the grass below the ball chipping today and had 4 or five one putts because of it and my other chips were a little long or short but all were at least on the green puttable, thanks for awesome post and thank you Byron

[@palikatrudeau4500]

you can see he has great hands , can't buy that !

[@pansinghaseni2667]

what a treat

[@quantumpotential7639]

Nice shot Byron. As always, the ball went right into the cup, where it belongs. Good job.

[@Gman6755]

Time to pony up the C-note!

[@trav-c137]

this was awesome.

[@sagatuppercut2960]

0:55 These people rudely walk in front of Byron during the taping of this video presentation.

[@neoalexy2k]

byron actually finished 5th in the 1937 british open lol

[@jonathanfanning9558]

"This one worth a hundred," he says and then promptly chips it directly into the hole, cbatising himself and honing his mind after a little bit of self misgivings about his previous shots going too long. Like that's easily solved just make the hole get in the way. Of course it was slightly fortuitous, nonetheless brilliant competitor spirit. Today's generation may have been chipping it in for a million but the competitive spirit remains preeminent amongst champions. I guess 100 dollars was serious dough in the 20s and 30s. Gentleman and golfing legend Byron Nelson was still spritely and gifted into his later years.

[@donaldschmidt2990]

A basic statement of fact. The greatest players have more "Common Sense" and Insight than everyone else!! Byron Nelson explains that when you're chipping don't reach for the ball. Don't stand too close as well. Just let the arms hang freely. Then a slight movement of the legs to allow for freedom of movement. That's it!! Ninety percent of proper chipping lies in those two basic tenets. If you do these two things properly, you are predisposed to hitting the ball more consistently around the greens. Or anywhere else!! This lesson is sealed with a KISS. KEEP IT SIMPLE STUPID!!

[@hopperstonemason]

Do you have the rest of the clinic?

[@G3R3E3G]

Yes, but it's very long...

[@stevewilcox2943]

G3R3E3G can you post it in whole or in pieces?

[@G3R3E3G]

Steve Wilcox I think there's about 10 more minutes of footage, but it's pretty boring and the camera angles aren't the best

[@raywilliams3530]

This is great!

[@Ktc99999-b]

master

[@hook7872]

Pure hustler!! LOL. Didn't call him Iron Byron for nothing

[@charlescash4452]

lee trevino chipping

[@ghay2239]

Golf idol. 😊

[@highgatehandyman6479]

U owe him 100

[@chestermicek]

This video is more about talent than technique. I'll bet Nelson could have used his driver or his putter to hit those shots, and it would have worked out well for him. You might ask, why do you write talent instead of technique, and I'd answer, "because he doesn't mention how valuable the bounce on a sand wedge is when hitting those shots out of scruffy lies".

[@Ktc99999-b]

cheapskate
